"What's going on? Why is it so dark?"
The senior executives were startled and immediately ran to the floor-to-ceiling windows and looked out.
Look face to face.
Immediately afterwards, they were all shocked.
Because high in the sky, an aerial battleship floated at some point.
This battleship floating in the air presents a majestic and unique momentum.
At the bow of the ship is a pair of huge wing-like structures that stretch out to both sides, making people think of angel wings.
The entire hull is covered with thick armor plates and reinforced metal, and its surface is also decorated with metal devices of various shapes, shining with silver light.
"The mark on that battleship is Humanity Innovation Alliance? What's going on? How come Humanity Innovation Alliance even built an air battleship?"
Air battleships have always been a difficult obstacle for Mega Corporation to overcome, because they are so heavy. Sending such a heavy thing into the sky is as difficult as ascending to the sky themselves.
But now, Humanity Innovation Alliance has actually built an air battleship, so what is the next step? Space Battleship? Stars and sea?
"Don't be afraid. What's the point of making a warship so big? It's just a target. Use the building's surface-to-air missiles to shoot it down!"
The roof of the Biotechnology building suddenly opened a large gap, and several missile launch nests rose from it.
Boo hoo hoo--
Dozens of missiles, carrying a trail of smoke, flew towards the battleship in the sky under the expectant eyes of Biotechnology's top brass.
As a result, just before it was about to hit the battleship, it was blocked by a transparent shield.
The missile collided with the shield, and the explosion caused only caused ripples on the surface of the shield, like lake water, and had no other effect.
Biotechnology's top executives were all dumbfounded.
"What is that? A shield?"
A shield is an energy barrier, or protective cover, that can play a protective role.
But this thing has only appeared in science fiction works. In reality, various companies have racked their brains, but they have been unable to apply it in actual combat.
Unexpectedly, Humanity Innovation Alliance not only took the lead in developing an air battleship, but also developed a shield.
"Don't panic. Generally speaking, there is an upper limit to the damage that the shield can withstand. Keep attacking. As long as the damage output exceeds the shield, you can attack the battleship and knock that damn giant bird down from the sky."
"Are you crazy? How do you know how long we have to fight? Do you think they will not fight back if they are floating there and let us fight? It is the wisest thing to surrender quickly."
"Surrender, surrender, you know how to surrender, and you dare to say that you have not confiscated the money!"
Just when the two parties were arguing, they saw a row of missile launch tubes opening at the bottom of the air battleship, and a missile fired out.
The impartial target is the conference room where Biotechnology's top executives are.
Boom!
In the afternoon of that day, except for Kang Tao and Arasaka companies, all companies around the world received Humanity Innovation Alliance's declaration:
If they continue to suppress employees who demand higher wages and do not meet the needs of those employees, Humanity Innovation Alliance will directly declare war on them and wipe the bodies of their top executives from this world.
In this regard, both Kang Tao and Arasaka agreed.
Since Humanity Innovation Alliance swept across the high-precision industry, the close cooperation between the two Mega Corporation and Humanity Innovation Alliance has deepened.
Moreover, their treatment of their employees also improved immediately after the Humanity Innovation Alliance.
The remaining companies immediately exploded after hearing this declaration.
Originally, they couldn't compete with the Humanity Innovation Alliance in high-precision industries, but now they are being asked to increase the benefits to their employees?
I would like to add something here, if they are required to follow the standards of the Humanity Innovation Alliance, of course they cannot afford it, but they cannot even do the most basic thing of treating their employees as human beings.
This is not to say that employees should be compensated, but a slight improvement in remuneration would actually not cause much burden to the company.
However, these corporate executives do not want to carve out a piece of their own cake for their employees.
Still the same sentence.
Giving free money to the poor is a sin.
Therefore, powerful companies, such as Zeta Tech, openly opposed Humanity Innovation Alliance.
He also signed contracts with several powerful private military companies and prepared to go head-to-head with the Humanity Innovation Alliance.
Then, there is no more.
Zeta Tech's headquarters in Europe was reduced to ashes directly under the Humanity Innovation Alliance air battleship's main gun, Positron Cannon.
What is even more frightening is that this time Humanity Innovation Alliance's air battleship did not fly above the headquarters of Zeta Tech, but was shot directly from low-Earth orbit.
In other words, the war beast created by the Humanity Innovation Alliance is actually not an aerial battleship at all, but Space Battleship.
After realizing this, the senior executives of other companies were frightened.
Many corporate executives stopped raising their salaries and simply begged for peace with the Humanity Innovation Alliance.
They are willing to sell the company to the Humanity Innovation Alliance, even if it is cheaper.
Under the absolute suppression of force, the seemingly unsolvable Corporate Colonialism was easily resolved.
Most companies were acquired by the Humanity Innovation Alliance, and those declining countries naturally joined Humanity Innovation Alliance and became members of the Humanity Innovation Alliance.
The era of global unification, the true Community of Shared Future for Mankind, has finally arrived.
When human beings no longer fight among themselves and no longer waste resources on dealing with their own compatriots, all human beings can finally unite as one.
Strand, push hard in one direction.
Night City.
Afterlife nightclub.
The hall was as noisy as ever, with the mercenaries drinking and bragging.
Then they saw three people coming in from outside.
When they saw clearly who was coming in, they immediately became quiet.
Su Xiao, V, Lucy.
There will be no one who doesn't recognize them. The three people who came in are all famous figures.
Thirty-one years have passed since Humanity Innovation Alliance was established until now.
Even the bartender Claire looks a little older, but they are the same as they were thirty-one years ago, no change.
In fact, Su Xiao has passed the system and obtained Longevity Technology.
Every technological advancement, including the previous Humanity Innovation Alliance, is the result of the system.
Now Longevity Technology for the Humanity Innovation Alliance.
This is not the kind of pseudo-immortality that Saburo Arasaka uploads its consciousness to the server and then injects it into other bodies.
It is a true immortality that can stop the physical body from aging.
However, this Longevity Technology is currently only available to a very small number of senior executives within the Humanity Innovation Alliance, that is, the people Su Xiao trusts most.
"President Su, Minister V, and Director Lucy," Claire is no longer as relaxed as when they met before, but more reserved, "What would you like to drink?"
"Bring us all kinds of drinks and drinks. I haven't been here for a long time, and I really miss the taste of the next life." Su Xiao subconsciously looked towards Rogge's exclusive box, but to his surprise, he didn't see Rogge in it.
"Where are Rogge and the Johnny people?"
As early as a few years ago, Arasaka's scientific director Herman, who was captured by Rogge, had developed technology that allowed Johnny to regain his body.
Johnny After this old slut got a body, it was rare that she didn't go out to talk about sex like before, nor did she smoke or drink like she did before.
Of course, this old boy can't quit smoking and drinking, but the amount has been greatly reduced, and he still holds concerts at Roger's place when he has nothing to do.
Not only did the older fans who were fans of Samurai Band get excited, but they also added a wave of new fans to Samurai Band.
But now, these two people are not here.
"They went on a trip and left last month. The store is now managed by me. President Su, do you need me to call Roger for you and tell Roger, have you come to the store?"
"No, if I have a chance, I'll call her again."
Nowadays, technology is so advanced that video calls can be made at any time.
Since Rogge is traveling with Johnny, I won't disturb them.
The three of them left the hall and came to the quiet private room. After waiting for a while, the door of the private room was opened, and it was not Claire who came in, but Jack.
Jack also accepted Longevity Technology, so he looks no different from thirty-one years ago.
"Hermano, chica."
Jack fist bumped with Su Xiao, V and Lucy one by one.
After sitting down, Su Xiao smiled and asked, "Have you thought about it?"
"Don't think about it anymore, I'll do it with you."
"Don't you think about it more? What a pity it is to give the career that you have worked so hard to develop to others just as you say."
Thirty-one years later, the power Jack took over from the priest has now developed into a famous private military company.
Although the scale cannot be the same as that of the previous Arasaka and Militech (because Su Xiao consciously asked Humanity Innovation Alliance to control the scale of private military companies and limit them to prevent them from becoming a behemoth again), it still belongs to the first echelon among today's private military companies.
Not long ago, Jack called and expressed that he wanted to come back and work with Su Xiao. Su Xiao also missed the time he had with Jack, but he asked him to think about it again.
After all, it is not easy to develop such a famous private military company. Let it go if you want to, and it will be bad if you regret it later.
Jack took a sip of wine and said, "For more than thirty years, I have enjoyed everything I should enjoy. Misty, my mother, and my children have all lived the life I once wanted them to live."
"Now, I just want to live for myself. I thought about it for several days, Su. It turns out that the time we brothers spend together is the most enjoyable. Although I founded the company by myself, managing a company is too tiring, boring, and boring."
"Su, you won't want me, right?"
Su Xiao smiled.
"Of course not. Well, since this is your decision, I won't advise you, but don't worry, I will take good care of you if you come over. Your position and treatment will definitely satisfy you."
"Brother, let's go home tonight unless we get drunk?"
Lucy beside him couldn't help but persuade him.
"It's better to drink less. No matter how advanced medical technology is, it is not a reason to drink alcohol."
V also advised, "Jack, you are an immortal, are you still afraid that you will not have the chance to drink in the future?"
Jack looked at Lucy, then at V, and finally his eyes fell on Su Xiao.
The two looked at each other and smiled.
Belated final remarks
Unknowingly, from September last year to the last
It took more than half a year to complete the book this month.
But in these six months, a lot of things happened.
My grandfather passed away due to COVID-19. Since my grandfather passed away, my grandma has aged very quickly and her mental state has become particularly bad.
The author has not had a father since he was a child, so he and his mother take turns taking care of his grandma. However, the work pressure on his mother's side is greater, so the author takes on more of the work of taking care of his grandma.
In just over half a year, the lively and angry atmosphere at home has turned into what it is now, and it feels like a nightmare.
I believe readers can also see that the plot in the middle and later stages of this book is not as good as the previous one, because so many things happened in the family, making it difficult for the author to maintain the same state as at the beginning.
But fortunately, in the end, Su Xiao and theirs had a perfect ending. They broke Corporate Colonialism and established a brand new supranational organization, Humanity Innovation Alliance.
Humanity will stop internal friction and explore space.
Finally, thank you all for your support. The author would like to thank you here.
